Story
We are lonelier than ever. The average American hasn't made a new friend in the last five years. Research has shown that people with close friends are happier, healthier, and live longer than people who lack strong social bonds. But why - when we are seemingly more connected than ever before - can it feel so difficult to keep those bonds alive and well? Why do we spend only four percent of our time with friends? In this warm, inspiring guide, Adam "Smiley" Poswolsky proposes a new solution for the mounting pressures of modern life: Focus on your friendships.

I’m stuck. What’s wrong with me? Is this all there is?

She understands their frustration. Some clients have done everything “right”: graduate, get a job, meet a partner. In Quarterlife, Byock utilizes personal storytelling, mythology, Jungian psychology, pop culture, literature, and client case studies to provide guideposts for this period of life.

Coexisting but conflicting needs create self-sabotaging behaviors. This is why we resist efforts to change, often until they feel completely futile. But by extracting crucial insight from our most damaging habits, building emotional intelligence by better understanding our brains and bodies, releasing past experiences at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves, we can step out of our own way and into our potential.

For decades we've been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. "F*ck positivity," Mark Manson says. "Let's be honest, shit is f*cked, and we have to live with it." In his wildly popular Internet blog, Manson doesn't sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is - a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck is his antidote to the coddling, let's-all-feel-good mind-set that has infected modern society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up.

Careers are not linear, predictable ladders any longer; they are fluid trajectories. No matter our age, life stage, bank account balance, or seniority, we are all being asked to navigate career changes much more frequently than in years past. The average employee tenure in America is just four to five years, and even those roles change dramatically within that time. Our economy now demands that we create businesses and careers based on creativity, growth, and impact. In this dynamic world of work, the only move that matters is your next one.

Nell Frizzell is calling this period of flux “the panic years", and it is often characterized by a preoccupation with one major question: Should I have a baby? Frizzell uses personal stories from her own experiences in the panic years to illuminate the larger social and cultural trends and gives voice to the uncertainty, confusion, and urgency that tends to characterize this time of life.

Drawing on the authors’ research in human development and innovation, Fail Fast, Fail Often shows readers how to allow their enthusiasm to guide them, to act boldly, and to leverage their strengths - even if they are terrified of failure.

Ryan Babineaux and John Krumboltz have come to a compelling conclusion: happy and successful people tend to spend less time planning and more time acting. They get out into the world, try new things, and make mistakes, and in doing so, they benefit from unexpected experiences and opportunities. Drawing on the authors’ research in human development and innovation, Fail Fast, Fail Often shows readers how to allow their enthusiasm to guide them, to act boldly, and to leverage their strengths - even if they are terrified of failure.

What if the smartest people in the world understand something that the rest of us don't? (They do.) What if they know that in order to achieve success, they will sometimes have to do things that others may initially perceive as stupid? The fact of the matter is that the smartest people in the world don't run from stupid, they lean into it (in a smart way). In The Power of Starting Something Stupid, Richie Norton redefines stupid as we know it, demonstrating that life-changing ideas are often tragically mislabeled stupid.

The average employee tenure in America is just four to five years, and even those roles change dramatically within that time. Our economy now demands that we create businesses and careers based on creativity, growth, and impact. In this dynamic world of work, the only move that matters is your next one.

A business parable about how to create a start-up that won't trap you when you want to sell it. According to John Warrillow, the number one mistake entrepreneurs make is to build a business that relies too heavily on them. Thus, when the time comes to sell, buyers aren't confident that the company-even if it's profitable-can stand on its own. To illustrate this, Warrillow introduces us to a fictional small business owner named Alex who is struggling to sell his advertising agency.

Slightly Disappointing
The beginning of this book was great - I kept saying "Yes, I can totally relate!" However, as the book went on I felt that I could not really relate to the stories he shares of his friends/colleagues or even some of his stories. I felt that a lot of the stories were about journalism, writing, and other liberal arts careers, or individuals who likely do not relate to a large portion of society. I found myself fast forwarding through the majority of the middle of the book and got a lot more out of the "lessons" from the beginning and the end of the book. Overall, it had some useful information but I did not find it as relatable as I hoped.

Highly Recommend!
I’ve never written a review for a book before but I felt compelled to for this one. (I swear no one paid me to write this). I wish I could give a copy of this book to every young person I know who is still figuring out their career path. This book is really relatable and easy to digest and has a lot of humor and optimism. It was exactly what I needed. It completely changed my view on what it means to have a meaningful career, and provided me with a lot of practical advice and insights. I realized how many options I have in pursuing work. It gave me the hope I was lacking to stop feeling like a failure and to move forward and pursue what I want.

Listening to this book was the welcoming embrace of affirmation with not following the corporate ladder. Jumping from one lily pad to the next and finding new ways to dig a little deeper on current projects I've been working on. Thank you Smiley for creating this to be an audiobook that made it possible to read during transit that led to having the courage to ask my support groups for help.

Real Breakthrough Tips !!
As a millenial reader, I really like the style of Adams Poswolsky because he is relatable and I felt his deep passion from start, middle up to this book's final chapter. I purchase the audible version and there was never a boring chapter for me. I found his narration very honest and very engaging to the listeners. Since I found this book influential to my current professional career, I decided to buy a hardcopy of this book as well.
Will definitely listen to it again !

Love this practical, applied (yet still inspiring) read!
There are a lot of ways to get information about what you should do next-- I would recommend reading this book.
Each chapter is full of practical, applied activities to help you explore who you are, what brings you meaning, and build what you want for your next step. At risk of being boring or formulaic (aka: like many other self help books aimed at this audience), this book remains inspiring and supportive. It brings hope without impulsivity, ubiquitous advice while remaining individualized. It is truly a remarkable book.
In addition, listening to the audiobook provides an additional closeness/support from the book that might be missed in text. As a remarkable speaker, Smiley does not disappoint in his reading of the book. My only advice would be to print off or look at the extra materials on his website as you go along so you can do the activities.
This book started making a difference in my life the minute I ordered it. It is a reminder that you don't always have to get exactly where you're going (or even know where that is) you just have to take a step in the right direction.
Recommending it to oodles and oodles of millenials and beyond!
